HC Deb 22 February 1985 vol 73 c619W
Mr. Phillip Oppenheim

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what training courses are available for local authority emergency planning staff on the effects of nuclear electromagnetic pulse and protective measures.

Mr. Giles Shaw

The majority of courses held at the Civil Defence college cover this effect. I would also refer my hon. Friend to the reply I gave to a question from my hon. Friend the Member for Ilford, South (Mr. Thorne) on 21 January at column272.
